(I don't know what the deal is with my computer, but I can't get this pic to upload without turning. Ugh.)
My new phone! I am excited to have a full key pad because I am a text-a-holic!! :)

Our good friends have a huge inflatable water slide and set it up for the kids while we were over for the afternoon. The kids had a blast!!

I took the kids to the Assisted Living facility this morning to make a fun craft with the residents and some friends. I think this picture of JF and her new friend Jan is precious! :)

126/365

JF was thrilled to get her own shopping cart at Trader Joe's today! :)

This was a great find at IKEA a few years ago...but has only become a headache! This aides the children in so many mischievous ventures! "Steve" knows it has been a bad day when he comes home and the step stool is on top of the counter out of the kiddos reach! :)

"Steve" and I got to have a date night while the kids spent the night at Grandma's. We went out to dinner and then met some friends at the movies to see Wolverine.

120/365

The kids had a fun time playing at a friend's house while the moms cooked dinner! :) (Dads were either out of town or working late.) And of course, ALL the kids couldn't take a good picture at the same time!! :)

MG wants to grow her bangs out so we are trying to find way to keep them out of her eyes...I am not sure the bangless look suits her...we'll see how it goes!

This morning was a MOPS morning and I had to pull out my camera for this one....this table spread is a good indication of why my friends and I have a hard time keeping the pounds off!! What is this group of ladies thinking?

This evening the kids were excited to find grasshoppers in the backyard and attempted to catch a few.

Our new fish "Flippy".

107/365

At playgroup, we moms like to sit around eating food talking about how we need to lose weight!! HA! So, this week we started a little competition amongst ourselves to encourage us to meet our weight loss goals. We will weigh in every Friday at playgroup and for every pound we gain we have to pay $2...if we stay the same we pay $1...and if we lose, obviously we pay nothing! We will be doing this until July 31st and hopefully by then every mom will be at her goal weight! Then we will reward ourselves with the money that has been put into the pot...or the biggest loser will get the money! :)

I had just finished telling "Steve" that I didn't really have a good picture for the day...just random shots because I knew I was going to "need" a picture...then GA walked in from outside crying and I had my picture! (Is that morbid of me?!) He cut up his leg pretty badly! Poor guy! :(

JF got some new "fancy shoes" today (as she calls them) in preparation for Easter. She won't take them off...even with her jeans!

This is what happens when GA sneaks away with a bag of Goldfish while I am figuring out what we are having for dinner!!

Here is a picture of "Steve's" mountain bike accident Saturday morning that landed us in the ER for lots of hours today! This may very well win the prize for best picture of the year! :)

I couldn't stand GA's hair any longer...so today I took the clippers to it! He did not enjoy it one bit. MG got the camera while I was doing it and took some pictures. This one sets the tone perfectly! Poor guy.
